Where is home for you?
I was born and raised in North Philadelphia, but my parents are from the Dominican Republic and Colombia 🇩🇴 🇨🇴

A piece of advice to first and second-years:
Don't be afraid to ask for help! Professors are usually very understanding about the transition from high school to college and are very accommodating. Also, make sure you use all the resources provided to you at Penn. Some of my favorite places to go for help are La Casa Latina and Penn First Plus!
